2x + 8y = 5
2/ 24x - 4y = -15
2x + 8y = 5
48x - 8x = -30
+
--------------------------
50x = -25
x = -1/2
2 * -1/2 + 8y = 5
-1 + 8y = 5
8y = 6
y = 6/8
y = 3/4
x = -1/2 y = 3/4
Well we know that 10 and 3/4 is equivalent to 10.75. If we divide the meat into 8 equal packages we have to divide 10.75 by 8. Dividing 10.75 by 8 gives us 1.34375 pounds of meat per package. If we take that, and multiply it by our given value of $3.40 per pound, we end up getting $4.57 a package.
$8.30?
I need more info, is this including tax or are you having to tax the items as well?
22 i think idk sorry if i’m wrong
